Blessed
So we opened up our first storefront on 2 Extra Place recently! As many of our closest family and friends know, Stevenson and I are pretty superstitious and hold a few spiritual customs to heart. One such ritual is to have our new projects and endeavors “blessed” by holding a small ceremony. With the opening of the shop, we were lucky enough to have Steve’s Dad, Dr. Aung, available to perform the ceremony. Steve’s parents flew in the morning of our opening day and pulled up in a cab just as we were ripping off the paper that boarded the windows during construction. Pretty symbolic for two incredibly superstitious individuals! Dr.Aung walked around the space while bestowing good energy and good wishes to every corner of the shop… It was a casual event but a meaningful one nonetheless. Just wanted to share some photos from that morning!
